Looking at trading the Prairie 650 for a Raptor. I was sitting on a new limited edition yellow, very hot looking machine. The only issue was the handlebar position seemed very low for aggressive stand-up riding. Does anyone else find it the same, and what's everyone using for aftermarket bars and/or risers?

You can put a taller aftermarket anti-vibe steering stem like a +2 for a Yfz 450 on a Rap. 700. Made a huge difference on mine, plus a set of Pro-Taper's. You will have to run a longer clutch cable and a brake cable from the master cylinder down to the steel line. Just do not use a MOD QUAD brand brand of stem like I did the first time.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] POS!!!!!

I had the same issue , all i did was buy an extra set of the little "bridge clamps" that hold the bars to the stem , put them underneath and it raises the bar by 3/4 inch approx . Made a heap of difference and only cost me $10 .
Great bike anyway ....makes my Bomb seem slow , although the comfort and handling of the bomb outdoes the raptor ...well at least till i put my hands in my wallet !!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I've got the trail tech clamp kit with med rise X-bars, and it gave it a great feel without changing cables or lines. You can go with a high rise bar if you change lines and cables. Or just get a +2 steering stem, (nice, but expensive, and you'll still have cable issues).
